The Champ

You dreamt I was a smoker
I dreamt that we got lost in Kroger
But I laugh the same
When I told you my name
And you said, "I hardly know her"

You took my picture
Then took it down
I couldn't get you out of your head into your mouth
All the things you did
I just don't get, shut me out
Now every word that I write
Is blue, and green, and brown

Now I fight my smile when I think about you
But, it hits back twice as hard
Having conversations with you that we never had
I never get too far
From a closed fist
To a bleeding heart
"Hi Simon!"

Well, Texas ain't the same since you left
I've never been
But I thought I'd make an educated guess
Now Big Thief sounds different
And different sounds wrong
Sometimes at night
I wish you'd send me just one more song
But you always told me someday
And someday never came
I thought that things were changing
But we ended up the same
I wanna say that I don't miss you
Want to make myself forget
I tell myself that you don't like me
Half as much as what you said you did

You won't know if I'm hurt
I won't know if you're sorry
You won't know if I'm hurt
I won't know if you're sorry
You don't know that I'm hurt
I don't know that you're sorry
I don't care that I'm hurt
You don't have to be sorry

You're more beautiful than I have words for
More lovely than the moment before
I wish we could've been
I still think we should've been
